ABOUT SIGNAL LOSS

Because of the small size of the highly portable KING Tailgater, signal strength may not be as strong as with a fixed home antenna.

OBSTRUCTIONS

The KING Tailgater requires an unobstructed view of the southern sky for the best signal reception .

Be sure to place the KING Tailgater in a location free from obstructions such as people, trees, buildings, vehicles, etc . This will allow for the strongest signal and will help prevent any interruption to your programming . Point the handle approximately north to speed up search time .

RAIN AND SNOW FADE

Though rare, heavy rain, snow, or dense cloud cover can reduce the satellite signal, which may interrupt your programming . Your programming should return as conditions improve .

DO NOT BLOCK THE KING TAILGATER’S LINE OF SIGHT TO THE SATELLITES IN THE SOUTHERN SKY AT ANY TIME!

IMPORTANT!If you move the antenna unit any

time during or after a scan, you will have to repeat the scan process.

IMPORTANT!Do not apply rubber feet if roof mounting the antenna unit.

Back of DISH ViP211z Receiver

Satellite television uses satellites in a geostationary orbit over the earth . This type of orbit enables the satellites to stay aligned over one place on the surface of the earth and to transmit your television programming to the KING Tailgater when pointed at the appropriate satellite .

Your television programming is delivered from up to 3 satellites located at the 110°, 119°, and 129° west longitudes. The KING Tailgater will automatically find and then switch between satellites as you change channels to offer you the ideal viewing experience .

Due to the low look angle for the 129 satellite in the northeastern region of the United States, you may experience difficulty viewing programming from the 129 satellite while in this area. (Programming from the 110 and 119 satellites should still be available .)

ABOUT SATELLITE TV RECEPTION

DOWNLOADING PROGRAMMING TO THE SECOND RECEIVER

After completing the steps on the previous page, reset the second receiver by pressing the POWER button on the front panel for 10 seconds . The TV picture will go away and should reappear within two minutes . The receiver will then download the program guide to show only the channels available on the current satellite as determined by the channel selected on the main receiver . Downloading the new program guide can take up to five minutes to complete.

The channels available on the second receiver are determined by the channel/satellite selected on the main receiver . For example, if you select a channel on the main receiver that is broadcast from the 119 satellite, then the second receiver will be able to view any channel broadcast from the 119 satellite .

If you switch channels on the main receiver to one that is broadcast from a different satellite, (for example, your channel was broadcast from satellite 119 but your new channel is broadcast from the 110), the antenna will automatically switch to the 110 satellite and programming will be lost on the second receiver until you either:

• Select a channel on the main receiver that is broadcast from the previous satellite (satellite 119 in this example) .

(or)

• Reset the second receiver by following INITIAL SETUP FOR SECOND RECEIVER (on previous page) to download the program guide for the newly selected satellite (satellite 110 in this example) .

NOTE: If you choose a channel on the main TV that causes the antenna to switch satellites, you may have to run a check switch on the second receiver .

1 . Make sure you have the following tools and materials before starting .

ANTENNA UNIT LOCATION (See Illustration on next page)

2 . Select an area on the roof for the antenna unit and the location where the wiring will enter the vehicle through the roof to the satellite receiver inside using the following criteria:

• A shorter distance between the antenna unit and the satellite receiver is most desirable .

• Make sure you have enough room to mount the antenna unit .

• The antenna unit should be mounted on the center line of the vehicle, and not tilted more than 2 degrees in any direction .

• There must be no “line of sight” obstructions. Air conditioning units, other antennas, and storage areas that are too close to the antenna unit may prevent the satellite signal from reaching the antenna unit .

• Mount the antenna unit with the handle to rear of the vehicle .

NOTE: Many RVs are prewired with RG-6 coax cable for satellite antennas . Contact the manufacturer of your RV or your local dealer to verify where this cable is located . If prewired, run the existing coax cable from the prewire location in the roof to the antenna unit . When choosing the antenna unit location, make sure the prewiring will reach the antenna unit .
